Weekend Review 12/2-12/4/2011

Well I am basically dying today thanks to a beautiful weekend in the city. I have been trying to take advantage of this remarkably nice weather we have been having in Philly. Craming so much in one weekend is awesome but extremely tiring. And after Saturday I should probably never drink again. Well, let's face it, at least until tomorrow night.

Took alot of pics this weekend to capture it all, so here goes.

First Friday: I am not really sure how I have not been to this yet, but the First Friday Free Art Exhibition in Olde City is pretty much amazing. Free Alcohol and Free Art? What could be better? Jac and I set out, met up with Diana, and scoped the scene. I had to refrain from buying just about everything! I will not miss another one of these, for reals.



Typical Saturday: Jac and I set out vintage shopping on this beautiful day. We were fortunate enough to have Arianna join us. Before flipping the racks we checked the scene at South Street Sounds. What an incredible little gem this was. Arianna picked up a ukulele while Jac found some cheap hanging stars which were awesome. We came to two conclusions as we left, 1. this place is fabulous, the owners rock, and we should probably hang out here more often, and 2. we need to come here every weekend just to pick up guys. Hot dudes galore. I will officially send you girls the invite to set up shop in the store this coming weekend.







After spending about an hour in SSsounds we checked out a little vintage shop, Wear House Boutique, that was just too cute. The owner was so nice, and I was fortunate enough to find this amazing bag.



And the jewelry!!!





Ohhhhh...and let me just give word of warning for anyone ever drinking a cup of coffee from OCF coffee shop. If you DO NOT want to feel like you just swooshed back an eightball DO NOT drink the Bolivian blend french press. I think I am still coming down off my high. I've been shaking for my next fix all morning. What the shit?

Anyways, I will not even get into Saturday night, because there is just wayyy to much to cover. Let's just say we had a blast, right?!!

Sunday, in the midst of my body still being confused from the Bolivian coffee and the over indulgance of Jameson I set out for a concrete picnic with my girls. Falafel Bar (15th and Chestnut) is toooo good. And they deliver to my apt, sooooo long Maoz, you have been beat out.


((photo cred: Arianna))

I wanted to get down to the Christmas Village to get some pics for the photo contest. Too bad my effin camera was dead when I got there. That is the one thing about my camera that I hate. It gives you like a 2 sec warning before it dies. I am sure there is some way to fix this that I have not yet figured out. Oh wells. I will torture myself with another walk down to the (Ihate) Christmas Village sometime this week. I did get some with my iFiggity of course.





And then I, still cracked out from OCF a day later, tried to sleep. Unfortunately, I only got about 4 hrs total last night and I want to rip my eyeballs out right now.

I would say that makes for a good weekend. And to think this week is only going to get crazier!!!
